$segments.$add() crashes Studio

Hi JeanMarc,

This is a known error in Studio 5.2.3.
It is not solved by Omnis.
I had the same problems. Only works in Development. Not anymore in runtime.

There was a conversation before on this list about this issue by Alan.
See text underneath.

Best regards,

Bob

This is what we were told:

This issue has been previously reported to us as ST/DF/220. Please note,
this will not be fixed for any versions of o$5. There is a possible
workaround , and that is to invoke the Runtime DataFile Tool that will
allow the user to specify the size of the segment, and add the segment by
using the following: $root.$modes.$dotoolmethod(kEnvToolBrowser,31,”NAME”)
;; where NAME is the internal name of the data file.
